<A NAME="BHCEFDIJ"></A><h1>DataWindow Web control for ActiveX</h1>
<A NAME="TI5737"></A><p>The DataWindow Web control for ActiveX is a fully interactive
DataWindow control for use with Internet Explorer. It implements
all the features of the PowerBuilder DataWindow except rich text.</p>
<p><img src="images/note.gif" width=17 height=17 border=0 align="bottom" alt="Note"> <span class=shaded>Deprecated technology</span> <A NAME="TI5738"></A>The DataWIndow Web Control for ActiveX is a deprecated technology
and might not be supported in future releases of PowerBuilder.</p>
<A NAME="TI5739"></A><p>The DataWindow Web control for ActiveX supports data retrieval
with retrieval arguments and data update. You can use edit styles,
display formats, and validation rules. Most of the PowerBuilder
methods for manipulating the DataWindow are available. Several functions
that involve file system interactions are not supported, allowing
the Web ActiveX to be in the <i>safely scriptable</i> category
of ActiveX controls.</p>
<A NAME="TI5740"></A><p>Included with the DataWindow Web control is the DataWindow
Transaction Object control for making database connections that
can be shared by several DataWindow Web controls.</p>
<A NAME="TI5741"></A><p>The Web ActiveX is provided as a CAB file, which allows the
client browser to install and register the control. When the user
downloads a Web page that refers to the CAB file, the browser also
downloads the CAB file if necessary, unpacks it, and registers the
control.</p>

ActiveX, see the <i>DataWindow Programmers Guide</i>
